Amitayus mandala thangka | Handmade Sacred Thangka Painting

Description

Amitayus Mandala Thangka

The Mandala of Amitayus as depicted here is a two-dimensional rendering of an actual structure that is shaped like a pyramid. Each aspect of the mandala represents a physical feature of the abode, as well as an aspect of the enlightened mind. Of these, the first floor and the outermost square represents the qualities of a Buddha’s bodily activities. The second floor is that of his speech, the floor above that of his mind, while the last floor – depicted as the smallest innermost square – represents the fully enlightened intelligence. At the pyramid’s pinnacle is Amitayus’s mantra written in Lenza script, a form of Tibetan writing often used to transcribe Sanskrit.

At the center of the mandala sphere is the buddha Amitayus, red and peaceful. The two hands placed in the lap are in the mudra of meditation holding a golden vase of long-life nectar. Adorned with gold, jewel ornaments and silks he sits in vajra posture atop a lotus seat. Surrounding that, on an 8 petalled lotus, are 8 identical forms of Amitayus. In the east (below) is Vajra Amitayus, south (left) Ratna Amitayus, west (above) Padma Amitayus, north (right) Karma Amitayus. In the northeast is Avaloka Amitayus, southeast Guna Amitayus, southwest Jnana Amitayus and northwest Achala Amitayus.
